So what do you see? "Happy Birthday aunt flash mom" or "Happy Birthday aunt slash mom"? In any case neither of them sounds right. lols.- "Happy Birthday aunt flash mom"
The word 'flash' in this context can take a meaning:
(informal)
1) As a verb, to expose oneself in an indecent manner
2) As an adjective, ostentatious or showy; attracting attention by being large or expensive eg. a flash car/he is very flash, isn't he? - "Happy Birthday aunt slash mom"
The word 'slash' in this context can take a meaning:
1) As a verb, to cut with a violent sweeping stroke or by striking violently and at random, as with a knife or sword.
(informal)
2) As a conjunction, as well as; and. Used in combination and often rendered as a virgule in print: an actor-slash-writer; a waiter/dancer.
Anyways, I'll end off with what the original blogger has said regarding this picture:
"Although I suppose if Aunt flashed Mom that would liven up the party, and it's certainly preferable to Aunt slashing Mom."
